Lives of two people has crossed path. One who never, ever in his years of living believed in soul mate. Popular, cars, house screaming money, the City's most talked about bachelor, He was a worshiped god in eyes of many women.
But ..... not a date...
" I need to use the toilet " my heart was racing and yes I needed to use it as my bladder was pressing down on me.
I finished and I just sat there. He just asked me to marry him, what should I tell him ? And how am I going to g ....
" Rose ? " I don't know how long I've sat here for, lost in my own thoughts
" come in " I had my head in hands as he walks in. Kneeling down in front of me and removes my hands off
" don't cover your face from me, tell me what's wrong ? You're looking at bit pale Caro " he wiped a tear that I didn't know was there
" please baby tell me whatever it is I promise to accept and help you out " I couldn't find the words, oh my
" I .... I .... I am pregnant " there, i said it but he was silent
" how long or far are you ? " he asks after a couple of minutes and there was no emotion on his face, I am scared to know what his thinking right now
" I am 5 weeks " he was scaring the sh*t out of me, so I started crying, mumbling I am sorry and I stood up heading for the door but he grabbed me in the process hitting his chest
" I know it was best for me to stay away and that you probably weren't ready for any kids. We didn't use protection that night and ..... And if you don't want it then that's fine by me I'll stay here and raise it, maman will help me ..... " I rambled on but he stops me
" STOP IT ! " he commanded sternly but I couldn't stop crying damn you ! Hormones
" is it my child? " he calmly asks as if he was afraid of the truth
" yes rahim it's yours. I swear ! I didn't sleep with Diego if that's what your thinking or assuming. I love you and so as the baby, you're the only man And first that I slept with " I said with my crying voice.
He let out a big deep breath I believe he was holding in and lifts me off the ground, circling my legs around his waist still crying hormones!
I felt tears at the crook of my neck, it wasn't water but Genuine tears
" thank you, know that I would never let my child live without a father or mother she or he needs both parents to pamper him with equal love. Thank you Rose for carrying my seed. " we were both a crying mess, my emotions were all over the place. He puts me down and I buried my face on his chest while his arms engulfed me.
" I am asking for the second time babe Will you marry me ? " I nodded
" yes " I spoke quietly. He went down on one knee and places the ring in my finger a 15 carat Schwartz engagement ring, it sparked everywhere as it hits the light.

He stood up kissing both of my hands and added
" both of you are my world now, nothing more matters. Thank you for our child, and when you'll ask me to explain beautiful I'll show you only you. And I know you're not into big expensive things at least this would do " I am curious
" how much was this ? Rahim " I stare at him then
" uh .... Uhmm a couple of dollars, only a thousand " I don't believe that one bit !
" I want to sleep. I am tired " I said. I wasn't like this when he wasn't here but, all of a sudden this baby starts to act strange as if he knew his daddy is here, that had me smiling
" come on maman bear it's time to relax. You want me to get you anything ? " I shook my head and snuggle close to his body how I missed it.
" well ? How did it go son, did she say yes ? " did she know about this?
" Mãe you knew that he was going to propose to me ? " she nodded
" show me ! show me ! " she is overjoyed, I showed her my ring and she gasped, and hugs me
" congratulations minha filha ( my daughter) did you tell him ? " I nodded
" when is the wedding? " I had my mouth open
" maman! We just got engaged! "
" ok ok I'll leave you two lovers alone and dinners at seven, I am giving you time to relax "
" thank you Ms Milena " Rahim said to her
" don't be so formal call me Mãe dear, after all your my son to be " she left and I slumped down the bed grabbing my phone
" what are you doing? " he asks
" I am calling Diego, why ? " I ask
" I don't like him " I lift my brow and start to poke him
" you weren't there rahim when .... "
" I got it ! I am sorry ! you can Call your so called friend Diego. Better not start flirting with him " he mumbled the last bit and walked out pouting and looking upset. I felt bad.
This hormones are playing with my feelings and emotions.
Diego picked up on the second ring
" hi Diego "
" what's up pretty face ? Are you ok now ? "
" yeah I am, listen I have something to tell you " I told him and I started
" the guy you saw earlier today is my fiancé " silence
" Diego .... "
" why didn't you tell me that earlier today rose or before that you had someone instead of giving me false hope " he sounds upset
" he just proposed. I thought you were ok with us being friends Diego and now your angry ? "
" I never wanted to be friends with you rose what I want is something more, I want you to be mine not someone else's " oh my
" I am sorry Diego but i know as hurtful it can be, I can't be yours as I am someone else's and thank you for being honest "
" I love you Roseni " I saw a hand before me I looked up to see rahim, motioning for me to hand him over the phone I hesitated but he took it from me
" rose ? Are you there ? " Diego asks
" she is here Diego. Listen I understand you love her but she doesn't love you, she may as a friend but not more than that " rahim said
" and how do you know that ? B*****d " oh god I think there's a side of Diego that I do not know
" I know because she's my woman and the fact that I have put a ring on it. Have a good life " rahim hang up the phone.
" come here " I went over to him and he puts his hand on my stomach and caressed it gently while staring me straight in the eyes, he bend down and kisses it. And said,
